Motions Team

We had motions practice today.

We have a practice once a month, on the last Saturday of the month. We practice from 10am until 6pm. Yes, you read that right, 10 am until 6pm. Now that practice includes quite a few things. Let me give you a run down...

10 - 10:15am -> The kids arrive
10:15 - 11am -> Ice Breaker and the Lame Name Game (If you don't know what the Lame Name Game is, you're missing out)
11am - 12pm -> Bible Study; we look at a verse that deals with worship and the different ways to worship
12 - 1:15pm -> LUNCH!
1:15 - 6pm -> Practice, with breaks as needed

Now, if we finish practicing what we need to then we get to sit and watch a movie or play a game. Today, we finished early; about an hour early. So we watched "Happily N'ever After". It's a cute twist on the Cinderella story. Today we had Kilyn, Reighanna, Sadie, Rachel, Paige, Macey, and Chance. And then of course Rebekah who is my amazing assistant was there to help run things and teach them new songs. The girls curled up on one couch and Chance and Rebekah were on the other. They were just too cute so I had to take a picture.

It was an excellent day. Extremely tiring but very good.

Thursday Randomness

So, here I sit while a student works on his lab report. I thought I would take the opportunity to write a post on my blog.

I went to Disneyland today. I taught this morning, drove down to Anaheim for a few hours then came back to teach my evening lab. It was fun going for just a few hours, not too overwhelming. I got to go with my friend Bekah and her brother and nieces. It's always a new experience going with little ones.

I had an epiphany the other day, about myself. So now I'm working through this horrible realization I've made about myself and discovering how to change so I can be more Christ-like in my behavior. I think I spent 3 hours straight crying on Tuesday evening between realizing what I was doing and then spending time in prayer asking for forgiveness from God and then going and talking to a friend and asking for forgiveness from that person. Needless to say I was spent spiritually, emotionally and physically by the time I got home Tuesday evening.

And now, I'm going to go pick up the lab room and get ready to go home.
